### Guiding Principle
+ "Simple things should be simple; complex things should be possible."
-- Alan Kay, pioneering computer scientist
### Start Out Simply
+ Download and install straight from the [Mac App Store][store].
+ No up-front purchase, no in-app purchase, no subscription, no advertising, no registration, no interest in your personal data.
+ Create a New Collection of Notes in iCloud and give it a name.
+ Enter as many Notes as you would like.
+ Use Tags to group your Notes by topic.
+ Add an optional Link to a Note to provide a reference to a location on the Web.
### Expand a Bit
+ Create multiple Collections for different types of Notes, or Notes about different sorts of things.
+ Vary the fields used for different sorts of Collections, choosing additional fields from the standard set: for example, add a Date, a Status and a Recurs rule for a "To Do" list.
+ Use Markdown to format the body of each Note.
+ Use a preferred text editor as an alternate means of editing a Note.
+ Use different sort sequences for each Collection.
+ Store your Collections wherever you would like.
### Explore Advanced Options
+ Use wiki-style inter-note links to create a personal knowledge repository ([zettelkasten][zet]-style).
+ Add additional custom fields, giving them whatever names you like.
+ Use the Notenik Scripting module to sort and filter Notes to make different sorts of lists.
+ Use the Notenik Templating module to create Web pages and sites from your Notes, or any other sort of text output you might find useful.
### For Further Info
+ See the Introduction available from the Help menu after downloading and launching the app.
+ Consult the User Guide to expand your knowledge: either on the [website][ug], or by selecting this option from the Help menu within the app.
+ Browse the list of [Articles][] available on the website to further explore particular topics of interest.
+ See the [Scripting Spec][scr] and the [Template Spec][tmpl] for complete reference info on these two topics.
